Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
St Mirren
Match Time & Date:
27 January 2024
12:30
Prediction: 0-2
Rangers
Rangers will be aiming to build on back-to-back wins over Kilmarnock and Hibernian when they take on St. Mirren in the Premiership round 23. The Gers are only five points behind league leaders Celtic and with one game in hand and they are surely capable of beating the Saints at the SMISA Stadium. Both Todd Cantwell and Ross McCausland limped off with injuries in the midweek triumph, with both Tom Lawrence and Scott Wright likely to step up.
The hosts, on the other hand, did well to beat Queen of South in the Scottish Cup at the weekend, but they will have a mountain to climb against the title hopefuls. Given Rangers’ fine form in the national championship, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the capital club. To make things even worse for the home side, forward Toyosi Olusanya misses the match through suspension.
Highlighted Player (Jon McLaughlin):
Jon McLaughlin is a goalkeeper who plays for Sunderland. The 188-cm-tall shoot-stopper played for non-League sides Harrogate Railway Athletic and Harrogate Town in the past, but in 2008 he joined Bradford City. After spending six years at Valley Parade, McLaughlin signed a contract with Burton Albion and he has been playing for the Pirelli Stadium outfit ever since.
Jon McLaughlin made 45 appearances for Burton Albion in both 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 seasons and he has established his self as the team’s first-choice goalkeeper. He was producing scintillating displays for Burton in the 2015/2016 League One campaign and, no doubt, he helped the team secure promotion to the Championship.
Jon McLaughlin was born on 9 September, 1987 in Edinburgh, but he has yet to make his debut for the Scotland national team. Speaking of his honours, the goalkeeper won the Football League Two play-offs with Bradford City in the 2012/2013 season.
Highlighted Team (St Mirren):
St Mirren are Scottish football club that compete in the Scotland Premier League. Founded in 1877, the Buddies play home games at St Mirren Park. The venue, which was built in 2009, can hold up to 8,000 spectators.
St Mirren are well known for their white and black home kit, while black and violet are the dominant colours of their away kit. The Scottish club played their first match against Johnstone Britannia on October 6, 1877, winning the game by one goal to nil. St Mirren have a bitter rivalry with Greenock Morton, and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two clubs.
The Buddies recorded their biggest win on January 30, 1960, with the team crushing Glasgow University 15-0 in the Scottish Cup. David McCrae is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 221 league goals. St Mirren have won the Scotland Premiership three times (1925/26, 1958/59, 1986/87).
